There is nothing subtle about Wiz Khalifa’s liking for weed. His new album is entitled Rolling Papers (pictured here), and pictures him letting out a billowing cloud of smoke. He’ll smoke joints during interviews, encouraged youth to vote in favor California’s ballot initiative Prop 19, and even exclaimed he used to spend upwards of $10,000 a month just to tango with Mary Jane. It seemed obvious that during SFCritic’s interview with Wiz Khalifa that we create a weed playlist.

SFCritic (SFC): Who is Wiz Khalifa when the sack has run dry? What song best describes you at that moment?

Wiz Khalifa (WK): Well the bag doesn’t run dry man to be honest. It’s an everlasting sack. It’s kind of hard to choose a song to describe a bag of weed because I always have one, non-stop.

SFC: So how about the song “Always and Forever?”

WK: Go ahead and put that one in their.

SFC: What is your favorite strand of weed? Is there a particular reason/story why this is your favorite type? After taking a hit of said weed—what song best describes how you feel?

WK: O.G. Kush and it’s just the strongest and best of the best. I think you could fill that one in too better. I don’t know these feelings and song, I understand where you were going with it, but I think it would be more memorable if it didn’t happen all the time. I smoke all day.

SFC: So it doesn’t make a difference?

WK: Yeah. Like a moment.

SFC: So how about when your song hit number one?

WK: I felt like a freaking champion dog. “We Are The Champions” dude.

SFC: Where were you? What was happening?

WK: I was thinking I was doing radio or in the office and they were like, “Oh your record is number one.” It wasn’t a big celebration or balloons falling out of the sky—it was just news.

SFC: Why do you smoke weed?

WK: That’s just my thing. Some people smoke cigarettes. Some people gamble. Some people buy cars from auctions. Some people go to strip clubs. I smoke weed.
lunts anymore because I don’t like tobacco in my body.

“I used to get the munchies all the time. That’s how I knew I was stoned. I don’t really get them anymore though. I ate a whole thing of Pringles.”

SFC: What song reminds you first started smoking weed?

WK: Rick James “Mary Jane.”

SFC: When did you get stoned first time, like Half Baked, stoned? How did you know you were stoned?

WK: Probably when I was fourteen. I used to get the munchies all the time. That’s how I knew I was stoned. I don’t really get them anymore though. I ate a whole thing of Pringles.

SFC: What song reminds you when you were younger and smoking?

WK: I used to listen to a lot of Bone Thugs and Harmony. So anything by them would work. [included: Bone Thugs and Harmony “Weed Song”]

SFC: What moments do you like to get stoned most? When you usually getting stoned, what type of music do you like to listen to most? Is there a particular artist?

WK: Usually, I listen to 70s old school music. I have a little playlist that I run through. Of course I listen to Bob Marley and stuff like that, but mostly old school stuff. Like soul music, Willie Hutch, Al Green, Anita Baker and stuff like that.

SFC: What is one song from that playlist?

WK: “Sunshine Lady” by Willie Hutch.

Wiz Khalifa’s album, Rolling Papers, is set to be released on Atlantic Records on March 29th.
